The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

On the other side, that day, the Parthian princess came to an inn and found a job here.

Today, she was busy, but suddenly heard the shopkeeper's stern reprimand.

The shopkeeper looked furious and shouted, "How do you do things so clumsily!"

Princess Anxi lowered her head, her face full of grievance and helplessness.

After all, she used to be a princess who was high and mighty. She had never done such rough work before, so her movements naturally seemed a little unfamiliar and clumsy.

She bit her lips tightly and tears flashed in her eyes, but she still held it back and silently told herself to try her best to adapt and to live on with strength.

Her hands were tightly clenched around the corners of her clothes, trembling slightly as she tried hard to do better.

Princess Anxi took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

She raised her head, looked at the shopkeeper, and said softly: "Shopkeeper, I know I didn't do well. I will work hard to learn, and I will never do this again in the future."

After hearing this, the shopkeeper's expression eased a little, but he still said with some dissatisfaction: "Hmph, I hope so. You have to do a good job and don't cause me any more trouble." After that, he turned around and went to do other things.

Princess Anxi secretly encouraged herself in her heart, and then worked harder on the task at hand.

She wiped the table carefully and placed the cutlery. Although her movements were still a little unskilled, they were much better than before.

However, not long after, the Parthian princess accidentally broke another bowl.

The guys around her all looked at her strangely. Princess Anxi's face suddenly turned red to her ears. She hurriedly squatted down to pick up the fragments, her heart full of self-blame and frustration.

"Why am I so stupid? I always fail to do things well." She cursed herself in her heart.

But she knew that complaining was useless, she had to persevere and slowly adapt to it all.

Today, the shopkeeper came to the Princess of Parthia with a serious face and said coldly: "Go away, you are really not suitable to work here."

When Princess Anxi heard this, her heart sank and her eyes were filled with astonishment and helplessness.

She lowered her head and looked at the little money she had saved, her heart filled with bitterness.

She didn't know where to go next, and her future was confusing.

She recalled that she was looking forward to meeting Xi Yu, hoping to use Xi Yu's power to help her get revenge.

But now, after these days of experience, she no longer has such thoughts. She now just hopes to have a peaceful life.

The Parthian Princess silently packed up her things and slowly walked out of the inn. Her frail figure looked particularly lonely in the sunlight. She slowly disappeared at the end of the street with confusion and hesitation.

At this moment, a young man with a folding fan happened to pass by. He saw the Parthian Princess at a glance and felt very strange.

He frowned slightly and thought to himself, "Aren't you the woman in the inn? Why are you here so distraught?"

The Parthian princess also recognized him as a guest who had been to the inn before.

The young master walked up and asked softly, "Girl, what's wrong?"

Princess Anxi bit her lip and reluctantly told the story of how she was kicked out by the shopkeeper because of her clumsiness.

After saying that, she lowered her head, her eyes slightly red, looking particularly lovable.

After hearing this, a trace of pity flashed in the young man's eyes and he looked at her thoughtfully.

The young master smiled and said, "Miss, my last name is Huang, you can just call me Young Master Huang. I see you have nowhere to go now, why don't you come to my house and work as a maid."

When Princess Anxi heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up, as if she saw a glimmer of hope.

But soon, she shook her head again and said timidly: "I...I may not be able to do it well."

Mr. Huang stepped forward and encouraged her, "Don't worry, girl. I believe you can do it well."

Princess Anxi felt a warm feeling in her heart and said gratefully, "Thank you, Master Huang."

So, Princess Anxi followed Master Huang away, and their figures gradually disappeared at the corner of the street.

On the other side, Cao Rui brought Cao Shuangshuang to a residential area.

The environment here is really not good, and it feels old and messy everywhere.

Cao Rui stopped in front of a slightly dilapidated house. He looked at Cao Shuangshuang who was following behind him with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Cao Shuangshuang slowly sat down at the side, and Cao Rui couldn't help but ask, "Shouldn't you elope with that monk? Why are you still here?"

Cao Shuangshuang raised her head and looked at Cao Rui with a complicated look in her eyes. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she just sighed softly and did not respond to Cao Rui's words.

Cao Rui frowned, his heart full of confusion, and the air around him seemed to become a little heavy.

Cao Rui looked at Cao Shuangshuang seriously, and said anxiously, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?"

Cao Shuangshuang bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes. She choked and said, "Originally, the young abbot and I had agreed that he would take a drug to fake his death, and then we could elope after he was buried. I was waiting with joy, but when I went to the cemetery, I found that this was not the case. I felt that I was deceived by him..."

Having said this, Cao Shuangshuang could no longer hold back, tears welled up in her eyes, and she began to sob.

Cao Rui looked at Cao Shuangshuang's heartbroken appearance, and a trace of pity welled up in his heart. He sighed softly, not knowing how to comfort her.

The residential area seemed exceptionally quiet at this time, with only Cao Shuangshuang's crying voice echoing in the air, as if telling of the pain and unwillingness in her heart.

Cao Rui stood silently by the side, quietly accompanying Cao Shuangshuang, allowing her to vent her emotions to her heart's content.

After a long while, Cao Shuangshuang's crying gradually stopped. She raised her head, her eyes were red, and there were still traces of tears on her face. Her appearance made people feel heartbroken.

Cao Rui looked at Cao Shuangshuang, frowned and said, "I don't think you are with a monk in the first place, why are you doing this?"

Cao Shuangshuang raised her head, looked at Cao Rui with tears on her face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't say anything more."

Cao Rui sighed and continued, "You should go back first. This is not the place for you to stay. I will go to the temple and investigate thoroughly to see what is going on."

Cao Shuangshuang hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, then slowly stood up and walked back step by step. Her back looked so lonely and desolate.

Cao Rui looked at Cao Shuangshuang's departing back and made up his mind to get to the bottom of this matter.

Then he turned and walked towards the temple, and his figure gradually disappeared in the path of the residential area.

Cao Rui hurried to the front of the temple. When he saw Xi Yu standing quietly at the door of the temple with his hands behind his back, he couldn't help feeling surprised.

He frowned slightly, walked forward, with a hint of confusion on his face, and asked: "Xi Yu, why are you here?"

Xi Yu turned around when he heard the voice, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile. He said calmly: "Of course I came here to pay homage to my wife. But it is you, Cao Rui, who makes me feel strange to come here."

As he said this, Xi Yu stared at Cao Rui closely, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Cao Rui felt a little flustered when Xi Yu looked at him like this. He subconsciously avoided Xi Yu's gaze and muttered, "I... I naturally have my own things to do."

His expression was slightly awkward, and he was still wondering why Xi Yu appeared here.

Cao Rui walked into the temple hurriedly. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Jiu Dazhi standing there.

He rushed over, his face full of anxiety and his heart full of confusion and worry.

Cao Rui came to Jiu Dazhi and said breathlessly: "Master, I want to ask, is your abbot still alive?"

When he said this, his eyes were fixed on Jiu Dazhi, his eyes were full of eagerness to get an answer. Jiu Dazhi was slightly startled, looked Cao Rui up and down, a trace of vigilance appeared on his face, and he slowly said: "Donor, who are you? Why do you suddenly ask such a question?"

Jiu Dazhi wondered in his heart, why would this person suddenly come and ask about the abbot? Could he have some intention?

Upon hearing this, Cao Rui quickly said, "I... I just have some things I want to clarify. Master, please tell me about the abbot's situation."

His face was full of sincerity, but his mind was constantly guessing various possibilities.

Jiu Dazhi said calmly, "Now our temple has a new abbot. As for the previous abbot, he has been put under guard because he made a mistake."

When Cao Rui heard this, he was shocked and almost blurted out: "Did he take the drug that caused him to fake his death and was discovered?"

As soon as he said this, he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and a trace of panic appeared on his face.

When Jiu Dazhi heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, and he asked in astonishment, "Donor, how did you know this?"

Cao Rui panicked instantly and subconsciously covered his mouth, his eyes full of regret.

After a while, he slowly took his hand away and said calmly, "Nothing happened. I...I'm leaving."

After saying this, without waiting for Jiu Dazhi's response, he turned around and left in a hurry, his steps were a little unsteady, and he kept regretting his impulsiveness and slip of the tongue.

Jiu Dazhi looked at Cao Rui's hurriedly leaving back. Although he still had many questions in his mind, he secretly said to himself: "Forget it, don't be too curious. It's better not to delve too much into some things."

He shook his head, turned around and went about his own business.

Cao Rui was walking in a panic, and because he was too flustered, he wasn't paying attention and almost bumped into Xi Yu who was walking towards him.

He was startled, his face turned pale in an instant, and his eyes were full of fear.

Cao Rui quickly said to Xi Yu: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

His voice was trembling, and his face was full of embarrassment and panic, like a thief. After he finished speaking, he hurriedly wanted to escape from here.

Xi Yu was also a little confused by this sudden situation. He frowned and looked at Cao Rui's embarrassed escape. His heart was full of doubts, but he didn't ask too much. He just shook his head helplessly.

On the other side, Zhou Yu had a stern look on his face and followed the soldiers with firm steps until they finally arrived at the border crossing.

The other soldiers breathed a sigh of relief at this moment as if a heavy burden had been lifted off their shoulders.

At this time, Madam Huayue looked at Zhou Yu with cold eyes and asked in a stiff tone: "Who are you?"

Zhou Yu looked calm and introduced himself in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "I am Zhou Yu."

Then, he looked at Madam Huayue sincerely and said, "Please move aside and talk to me further."

Madam Huayue frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded. Then the two of them walked towards a small woods nearby.

Madam Huayue stopped, turned around, raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhou Yu, and asked with a hint of impatience: "Can we stop now?"

Zhou Yu nodded, staring at Madam Huayue closely, his eyes full of inquiry, and asked, "I want to know, who are you?"

Madam Huayue raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a teasing smile, with a sly look in her eyes, and said, "Didn't those soldiers tell you? Humph, I am the bandit leader."

When she said this, there was a sense of unruliness and pride in her demeanor, and she did not shy away from her identity.

Zhou Yu frowned slightly and continued to look at Madam Huayue, as if he wanted to see more secrets from her.

Madam Huayue raised her eyebrows and said impatiently, "My time is limited. Can you be Xiyu's master?"

Zhou Yu's face remained calm, he slowly shook his head and said truthfully: "I can't."

When Madam Huayue heard this, her eyes widened with anger, and she shouted, "If that's the case, then why did you come to talk to me?"

She looked very angry, with her hands on her hips, as if she was about to explode at any moment.

Zhou Yu was upset by Madam Huayue's anger, but he remained calm. He looked at Madam Huayue and explained calmly, "Although I can't make the decision, there are some things I can discuss with you."

At this moment, the corners of Zhou Yu's mouth suddenly curled up slightly, revealing a wicked smile.

Seeing this, Madam Huayue couldn't help but frowned and asked with a puzzled look on her face: "What do you mean?"

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with cunning, and he said slowly: "I hope you can kill Zhao Yun."

As he spoke, he slowly took out a wad of currency from his sleeve.

Madam Huayue looked at Zhou Yu's actions and the money in his hand with a puzzled look on her face. She frowned even more tightly and wondered in her heart: What on earth is Zhou Yu up to? Why did he suddenly make such a strange request and take out so much money?

Her eyes were full of doubt and confusion.

Zhou Yu deliberately put on a vicious look on his face, and said through gritted teeth: "I am a general after all, but Zhao Yun is far more favored than me. I have been jealous of him for a long time. Now I heard that you have captured Zhao Yun, and I am very happy. So, I hope to use your hand, Madam, to make Zhao Yun die completely."

Upon hearing this, Madam Huayue was so angry that her eyebrows were raised and she shouted angrily: "This is outrageous! I just want money, how could I work for you, Zhou Yu!"

Zhou Yu was not in a hurry and continued, "This is very simple. I just want to express my sincerity. Madam, how much money do you want? I can get it together and give it to you."

There was a hint of eagerness and desire in his eyes, as if he was determined to achieve his goal.

Madam Huayue frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. She thought to herself that if Zhou Yu really wanted to save Zhao Yun, he should be able to raise the money with his status, but he chose to do this. It seems that he really hated Zhao Yun very much.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu hurriedly asked anxiously, "Madam, how much do you want?"

Madam Huayue raised the corner of her mouth slightly and extended a finger.

Zhou Yu said without hesitation: "No problem, I will go back and find someone to raise funds now. When do you plan to kill Zhao Yun, Madam?"

His eyes were full of anticipation, as if he couldn't wait to see Zhao Yun's ending.

Madam Huayue's expression suddenly became uncertain, and she was hesitant: Should I really do this? What if things change?
Seeing this, Zhou Yu said with disdain: "What? Madam, don't you even have this little courage?"

Before Madam Huayue could answer, Zhou Yu's eyes suddenly flashed with ferocity. He pounced on her in an instant, started fighting with her directly, and strangled her neck with one hand.

Madam Huayue was shocked, her heart filled with astonishment and anger: How dare this guy suddenly attack me!
But she quickly realized that she also knew martial arts and could not just sit there and wait for death.

There was a gleam of ferocity in her eyes, and she gritted her teeth and started fighting with Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu secretly hated in his heart: This Madam Huayue is really hard to deal with! But he did not back down and used all his strength to subdue her.

While dealing with Zhou Yu's attack, Madam Huayue cursed in her heart: You Zhou Yu, how dare you attack me? I will never let you succeed!
But Zhou Yu was not afraid of Madam Huayue at all. His eyes were firm and resolute, and he seemed determined to compete with Madam Huayue.

At the same time, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Soldiers, come here quickly!"

When the soldiers at the border crossing heard Zhou Yu's call, they immediately rushed towards this side without hesitation.

Seeing this, Madam Huayue showed an angry expression on her face and shouted: "Zhou Yu, you are despicable and shameless!"

Then, she sneered, "Humph, even if they come, they will just die. Because I have already defeated them."

Her eyes were full of confidence and arrogance.

Although Zhou Yu felt a little worried at this time, he still gritted his teeth and refused to retreat even a single step.

The soldiers ran towards this side like arrows. While running, one of them suddenly saw a brick on the ground.

His eyes lit up instantly, and he leaned over without hesitation to pick up the brick, then used all his strength to hit Madam Huayue fiercely. (End of this chapter)
